If you can't chat about ANYTHING here then come on over to LargeScaleCentral, it's open slather!
Rules are rules and since it was decided to be a little more ridged over there, that is how it will be. If I had a website and wanted to run it my way then it would be as I want it to be.
We have the right to express our thoughts but with limitation as prescribed by the host.
Freedom of speech is a right but not always on someone else’s website.
Stir up too much here and surely Bob will step in if he thinks the subject is going the wrong direction…
You know after all, these are train related websites, not anything else.
Political and religion have their place on other websites that cater to that type of discussion…
Cheers or lite em if you gottem,
And for those Branch Railroadians…choose your favorite holy water!
All in all, I’d rather talk trains!

Me too. Ya know, I wish I wasn’t so overwhelmed with everything that was going on at Fred’s to notice your tank car then. I probably watched it roll by and it didn’t click that it was the kit you built. I hope you’ll bring it to York in the spring so we can get a second look. It sure does look great in the pictures. JR
Did I miss something?
Steve-
Another place, another time.
Not here.
Ah,
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…

When I was young whippersnapper, my mommy told me that it was infra dig to discuss politics, religion and sex in polite company.
However, by mutual agreement here when LSC first started after the LYSOL debacle, I was under the impression you could discuss all of them as long as the subject matter included all three.
e.g.
The politics of religious sex,
The religion of political sex.
The sex of religious politics.
We didn’t make drinking off limits while talking trains did we? You know in Clinton County, Illinois (named after DeWitt Clinton - not that other guy or gal) our liquor stores all have drive up windows? We don’t take drinking seriously, its just that everything else isn’t as serious after a couple of drinks. Course where my Dad came from in the Ozark Hills, you carried your shoes to church to put on when you entered the doors and if you were going out for a big Saturday night, you bought a new ax handle. It would be impolite and too much like family to hit somebody with any ole used or broken ax handle. Teeth were always optional.
Quote:As I understand, the charter for this site explicitely states, "This is not polite company."

No censorship here, though I have on occasion told people (both publicly and privately) to shut the hell up.
Basically, I view this site as my living room, and all y’all are invited to come in, bull about trains, show off what you’ve done, ask questions, and generally hang out. If you get out of hand, I’ll put things right, but I wont ask you to “not talk about XYZ because Joe over there might get hurt feelings” or “You cant comment on manufacturer Y because he’s an advertiser here”. Thats not my style.

That’s what I like about this site. A little heat now and then, but all in all, we do get along rather well. Most of the time anyway !!!
Hey, I’ve made the plunge into On30 finely !! Hope to use my RCS stuff in some of the engines. Yahhh, I know tight fit… Might have to use a boxcar but this is not a bad thing…
Am I on the right track?
Cheers,

Dave,

MLS moderator said:It's a classique, a real keeper. ;) :)
Yep...this is an official MLS Moderator Post.
A bit of shouting, plenty of mistakes…hmmmmmmm could have been the “Happy Hour”. 
OTOH who knows, who cares???!!
I got a rocket from Jim Francis about my MLS post.
"Phil, that post was uncalled for!
Plus it makes Bob look bad for having people shill for his site on other sites.
Jim"
I replied
“Matter of opinion, Jim. Shad opens up a Public forum that purports to allow
chat on anything then posts a message to not use it that way. I don’t envy
Shad’s position as list owner but I think he sometimes assumes his site is
the only LS one. That’s what brought Jon D down in a screaming heap. Look at
the number of old hands who don’t go to MLS anymore. Look at the years of
experience that have been alienated by some silly rules (or more
particularly the irrational application of some rules).
I’m an old coot in LS on the net, been online at LSOL & many others since
'96. I’m seeing the same pattern on MLS that caused LSOL to go from the king
to a poor also-ran.
Phil”
I post this here not to belittle anyone but to get my point across. I don’t reckon I could have stated the above on MLS without getting my nose smacked.
And remember, wine is the proof that God loves us & loves to see us happy!

Well Jim is the reason I left MLS as he deleted the whole tread that I had posted my comment which was truly nothing bad at all … And he did that with his new found power just shortly after being made a Moderator !!! I see in the thread that seemed to be of interest that he made a comment long with others and then later tried to through water on the same thread !!!
Bah !! Who needs em ?? The other well know Moderator I heard, seemed to have got reamed and didn’t post for a long time. Man, I wouldn’t take the job even if you paid me…
Hey ! I into On30 now and looking forward to making a logging layout indoors. Yippee Skippy !!
Oh ya, until someone backs up a truck to the garage door and buys all of the GOOFY gauge stuff, I’ll still have that too…
Cheers,
